Save Real Money With Focus On Energy

Focus on Energy is an organization dedicated to smart energy. Focus on Energy empowers people and businesses in Wisconsin to make educated, intelligent and economically sound decisions when it comes to energy management. They have numerous energy efficiency and renewable energy projects available to the public and business of our State.

Harker Heating & Cooling customers have received more than $65,000 in rebates from Focus On Energy since 2017. This is more than any other HVAC partner in the area. With the purchase of energy efficient equipment, a precursor to many of these rebates, along with our customers, we have removed the equivalent of 44.5 cars from the road.

According to the Focus on Energy Website…

“Eliminating energy waste in Wisconsin helps everyone.

Focus on Energy’s work delivers real, measurable energy and financial savings for Wisconsin’s residents and businesses.
Installing cost-effective energy efficiency and renewable energy projects creates jobs, upgrades local infrastructure and improves the environment.
Bottom line, the energy and dollars saved through Focus on Energy strengthens Wisconsin’s economy.
By eliminating energy waste we reduce the need to purchase coal and natural gas from other states. This keeps dollars in Wisconsin and lessens the need to build additional power plants.
All told, since 2011, Focus on Energy has delivered more than $1 billion worth of net economic benefits to Wisconsin.
Focus on Energy is funded by Wisconsin’s investor-owned energy utilities, as required under Wis. Stat. § 196.374(2)(a), and participating municipal and electric cooperative utilities.”

Save energy and money without sacrificing comfort. A smart thermostat “learns” your habits to help you manage home heating and cooling costs. It adjusts your HVAC equipment based on your home’s unique energy profile and the weather outside.

Smart thermostats save up to $120 annually and typically pay for themselves in two years. You can also save energy and money by controlling your home’s system wherever you go. Lower your home temperature from work a couple degrees or warm the house before heading home.

Combine with HVAC Upgrades

Some smart thermostats notify you when the system isn’t operating at top condition. You’ll know when to change a dirty filter or schedule a tune-up before you need a costly repair.

Considering new heating and cooling equipment? Ask Harker Heating & Cooling to install a smart thermostat at the same time and receive an incentive check from Focus on Energy, in addition to other Focus on Energy incentives you may receive for heating and cooling equipment.
